Hundreds of cops have immunity over crimes as bad as murder. Meanwhile one loses his life trying to stop a literal coup attempt and the law is indifferent towards him. Are they training the cops to be bad?

In addition, I'm appalled by the light sentences these mutineers get away with, in a country that keeps people locked up for life as a slave for even small misdemeanors. What exactly is this?

The narrative is that the law applies equally to everyone. That's obviously an ugly lie.
